Should be noted that most polls at the moment (CNN,FOX,Monmouth,Emerson, Quinnipiac) and Party internals (GOP and Dem) have the GOP leading by at least 5%, YouGov and Morning Consultant are tanking the average. |

Although not formally called because of a major cock-up in the ballot paper printing in Clackmanas County, there now seems a consensus that moderate Democratic Representative Kurt Schrader has lost his primary to Jamie McLeod-Skinner, a result that, when/if confirmed will likely tilt that seat towards the Republicans.

In early results tonight Trump endorsed former Senator, David Purdue, has been utterly crushed by incumbent Brian Kemp in the GOP primary for Georgia governor; the AP have called the primary with Kemp leading 72.7-22.7 with 33% of precincts reporting. That race will be a rematch of four years ago, Kemp facing Stacy Abrams.
Success for Trump in the Senate primary where former Dallas Cowboys and University of Georgia Bulldog running back Herschel Walker has easily won his primary and will face Democratic incumbent Raphael Warnock in what may be the first time both parties have nominated an African American candidate for the same race.

Assuming you mean nationally, I think that Tim Scott's Democratic opponents have been African Americans. |

George P. Bush got crushed in the Texas Attorney General GOP primary by the Trump endorsed incumbent Ken Paxton, who has been consistently involved in controversy including being indicted for fraud charges.
Ken Paxton 68% - 631,581
George P. Bush 32% - 297,479
He was expected to lose, but I doubt anyone could have predicted this margin.

If you told someone 20 years ago, that potentially the first Muslim to serve in the US Senate would be a Republican. Hard to believe. |

So he is officially a Democrat now? In all but name, but more pertinently it would be held by a Democrat if Bernie wasn't there. |
